Elizabeth has apparently abandoned her Princess-esque ways. Sometime back, she began picking her nose and disposing of the findings by sticking them to her headboard and wall.
(Oh yeah, this does not pass the breakfast, lunch or dinner test, so if you are eating right now, especially something like raisins, either stop reading or stop eating.)
Now, a booger here, slim pickin’s. A booger there, still not a big deal, but a couple of boogers a day for even a week or two and suddenly your walls are buggered up with boogers. Your walls are pock-marked like a teenager’s face with pimples.
Well, that Elizabeth is a creative little booger bugger, and she came up with a solution. One thing that sticks at least as good as a booger is a sticker.
She came down the other day and informed that she had found a solution to her pock-marked walls and headboard, an effort that got her off the hook — for now — of hand-picking nose pickings off the wall.
She stuck decorate stickers over top of them. Which might actually work…when she (we) finally has to peel off the stickers, they’ll work like tape does with lint and a booger will come off with the sticker.
But, if for some reason we don’t get around to this, watch out. Someday there might appear to be a really good deal on a white, single bed on Craigslist — one already decorated with oh-so-cute stickers.
The Great Booger Cover-up Scandal

Charming. Reminds me of when my eldest was very young – 2 or 3 – and while I was hanging photos in the dining room, she walked in from watching tv, holding something in her hand and extending it to me. I instinctively held my hand out and she schmeared something on it. Had no idea what it was. I pleaded with my eyes and she said, “Boogers.”
Oh my goodness, LOL. No, Elizabeth is definitely not acting like a Princess now. Then again, how do we know what young princesses do? Thank you for the chuckle.
Oh Lon…this turned my stomach. I’m glad my dogs never do anything disgusting. š
Wow, I thought writing about vaginas was popular, but blog stats indicate booger posts really are where it’s at.
